Astonishing Success.

1t is the duty of every person who
have used Boschee's German Syrup
to let its wonderful qualities be
known to their friends in curing
consumption, severe coughs, Group,
asthma, pneumonia, and in fact all
throat and lung diseases. No per-
son can use it without immediate
relief. Three doses will relieve any
case, and we consider it the duty
of all druggists to recommend it to
the poor, dying consumptive, at least
to try one bottle, as $4,000 dozen
bottles were sold last year, and no
one case where it failed was report
ed. Such medicine as the Ger
man Syrup cannot be too widely
known. Ask your druggist about
it. Sample bottles to try,
sold at 10 cents. Regular size rs
cents. Sold by all druggists and
dealers, in the United States and
Canada.

Something New.

Outsiders frequently wonder
where the railroads obtain proper
return for some of the ingenious but
costly methods adopted in advertis-
ing their lines. One Of the latest
to attract our attention is nicely
bound 64-page book entitled, "What
to Do" containing descriptions and
the correct rules of a large number
of games suitable for parlor or lawn,
which has been issued by the Pas
senger Department of the st. Paul,
Minneapolis & Manitoba railway,
and will, we understand, be for
warded postpaid upon receipt of 8
cents by C. H. Warren, General
Passenger Agent, at st. Paul. 1t
is a book that would ornament al
most any table and interest both old
and young.
